Hi, friends! I am back with a new Pretty Pink Posh video today. I’m not sure why the Barbie movie was on the brain, but I wanted to take a fun approach to the latest release with lots of PINK! Now, I know girls can play with yellow dump trucks - toys don’t have to be pink. But if Barbie had a construction company, you know they would be all kinds of pink!
I started with cutting the Big Dump Truck Dies and Big Excavator Dies out of different shades of pink and holographic cardstock - the windows were blue and dirt pieces were shades of brown. You can follow along in today’s video if you want to see how I assembled them together. Next I began stenciling with the Brick Background Stencil on a sheet of A2 white cardstock with Kitsch Flamingo and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxides. I also stenciled the design on the smallest of the Fancy Card Dies.

I stamped my sentiment from the Utility Vehicles Stamp Set with black ink on the A2 piece so it would be covered by the Fancy Card Die piece as this would be the front of my card. I cut another piece of A2 white cardstock, adhered the small flap of the Fancy Card Die piece to the lower left corner, then adhered my stenciled and stamped piece on top to sandwich the flap in between the layers. I attached the Big Excavator to the “inside” of the card so that you could see it above the Fancy Card Die piece with 1mm foam adhesive. My Big Dump Truck is adhered to the Fancy Card Die piece with 2mm foam adhesive.
For my die cut sentiment, I cut the Large Hugs Shadow Die - the sentiment in white and the shadow in pink - and trimmed the “u” to make the word “Hi”. I started with trimming the white sentiment, adhered it to the pink shadow, and then trimmed the pink shadow to match. I adhered this to my card as well as some Strawberry Shimmer Confetti Mix around the card for some final shine! I hope you had fun with this card and can picture Construction Barbie on the job with her personalized trucks!
